Solving the meaningful puzzle of bringing different combinations and groupings of spaces together is a joy known by all architectural designers. This occurs all the more so for the residential designer who has the privilege of working closely with the people who will actually live in and regularly experience artfully designed and engineered spaces. Together we get to adjust the design from all perspectives, just so, to respond to the unique dreams of individuals. Why Architecture – people, puzzles, art, math, experiences… and as a bonus more responsible built environments bring benefits to our whole planet.

As a freshman in high school I took my first architectural drafting course and at that point became hooked on architecture. I went on to take all of the classes that the industrial technologies department had to offer, and even helped to create some advanced courses for myself to enroll in. After high school I spent a couple years at Adrian College taking more Architecture and Interior Design courses. I then transferred over to U of M to pursue my degrees in Architecture. Right from the beginning, and through all of my studies, residential architecture has been my passion. Working with people to design and re-design their homes, the spaces where life happens, has always excited me.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Architecture degree from the University of Michigan where he won first place in the Wallenberg studio design competition and a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Oregon with a concentration in sustainability. After spending over six years in the building industry doing everything from swinging a hammer, to developing budgets, to preparing architectural drawings – I found a home at Architectural Resource. Everyday my work is fueled by a passion for sustainable design and an insatiable curiosity for discovering new ways to built cost effective beautiful homes. While not at the office you can find me canoeing with my wife and two young boys and tending to my wild spiral shaped garden.

I am a 5th year student at Lawrence Technological University and will soon have my Master of Architecture in the summer of 2023. I have a keen interest in nature and architecture and more specifically the intersection of the two. My education at LTU has led me to believe that designing architecture should not only be for people but for the ecology people share with other life forms. I was thrilled to find Architectural Resource doing just that, and I am equally excited to be a part of team.   

Cassidy Kohl

Architectural Intern

I am currently a student going though University of Michigan’s architecture program. Traveling, living, and working in many different states such as Alaska, North Carolina, Michigan, and Florida has helped me expand my knowledge of culture and people. I find myself drawn to, and am very passionate about, many social and environmental subjects. I want to incorporate that passion into my desire to build and design architecture. Architectural Resource has helped me fuel those passions and put them to actual practice. I love this team and being apart of the good work they do for their clients and communities. My free time outside of studying architecture is filled up with lots of sun, water, family, friends, and lovings from me and my partner’s 8 year old pup.

Enhanced Architectural Intern

I’m an incoming fourth year student pursing architecture at Lawrence Technological University, and I’ve had the opportunity to intern with Architectural Resource since Winter 2022. My values of ecologically-responsible, and user focused design allowed me to align with those shared with my team at Architectural Resource. Interning has not only allowed me to tap into some of my already-present interests, but also discover new tactics of how a successful architecture firm operates and conducts clientele business. In my free time, I’m always trying to find ways to spend more time outdoors and taking pictures of what surrounds me.
